Shaq issues public apology to Devin Booker for doubting his game

After a stellar performance by Phoenix Suns player Devin Booker, Shaquille O'Neal issued a public apology for comments he previously made doubting Booker's ability to shoot at such a high rate. Booker has been on a historic playoff run, becoming the first Suns player to record 35+ points in three consecutive playoff games and having the most points of any player in the first eight games of the playoffs since Michael Jordan in 1990. In Game 4 against the Denver Nuggets, Booker scored 36 points on 14-18 shooting, prompting O'Neal's apology on TNT. Booker's co-star Kevin Durant also had a great night, scoring 36 points as well. With the series tied at 2-2, the Suns will look to take a 3-2 lead in Game 5 in Denver.
